When setting up a Billing Account for a Client, you might need to define markups for it.
These can be applied in 3 different ways:
- Percentage
- Fixed value
- Both at the same time (additive)
NOTE: You can use negative values in the markup fields to downmark the final value. For this diagram, if the Fee Markup% value would be -4%, that 10 USD order would reach the WMS with a value of 9.6 USD, calculated as 10*0.96 or 10 - (10*0.04)
MARKUP FORMULAS
- Regular Usage (without taxes included):
Markup = (Carrier charge before tax) * Fee Percent + Fixed Fee
- Added Tax Usage (with taxes included):
Markup = (Carrier charge after tax)* Fee Percent + Fixed Fee
To enable Added Tax usage you must check "Include tax into fee markup calculation"
To post the markup value even when no rates are returned, you must check "Force markup when missing carrier charge"
USING MARKUP IN RATE SHOPPING
For example, considering the following scenario:
- You have Carrier 1 with markup 100% and Carrier 2 with markup 50%
